To give Delegated Authority to the Section 151 officer in consultation with the appropriate director to move funding between the approved schemes within the agreed COVID Recovery plan
PDF 211 KBFollowing the implementation of a number of projects within the schemes agreed in the original Covid recovery plan approved by cabinet on 24 June 2021, it has become apparent that some of the schemes are going to have underspend within the initial allocated budget and some have been oversubscribed. To ensure that all underspend can be fully maximised within the given timeframes to support economic recovery and the community wellbeing of residents as part of Covid Recovery it is requested that delegated authority be given to the Section 151 officer following consultation with the appropriate director to move the allocated funding between the approved schemes.
